Fictional Characters I would like to meet: Mr. Darcy


After all these movie, song and book characters it’s safe to admit that Jane Austin created the perfect man. I suspect Darcy was based in some sort of guy she fell for in her days. Years of longing for the ultimate love (she was obviously a hopeless romantic), years of unsuccessful courting and years of rejecting possible suitors led her to pour all of her desires, fantasies, needs and experiences in one guy, a nonexistent that is. And yes Mr. Darcy is what any woman secretly wants. At the beginning he seems too quite, too boring and snob but at the same time he creates a sense of mystery around him. That is something that every woman in her right mind values. He seems to be effortlessly charming but he is fixated in one girl. He is not a social butterfly but he is capable of deep emotions that he rarely expresses (an other quality that women seem to value). He sure looks like someone I would love to go drinking with in order to seduce him and make him open up. A mystery to unravel for myself. In a world of fast communication where things are said but not meant he would definitely had been a rare exception.
